Ok, this has happened twice today... where I'm in the middle of typing a question to a particular problem and towards the end of my post the problem fixes itself.
1.) I was trying to set up a dual monitor display. 460GTX 1Gb card linking two monitors with different resolutions. the larger monitor was recognized immediately until about 20 to 30 seconds after I opened nvidia-settings and then it would only allow a resolution of 640x480 and the name changed to "Digital Display". After a while of trying to figure it out and typing up a question here, it became recognized with the correct resolution. (problem solved)
2.) My mouse cursor kept mirroring (pointer faced upper right) when I hovered into some programs, the applications menu, or right-click menu. Nothing more than a huge annoyance that somehow fixed itself.
Does anyone have a cause and/or solution to these? I'm curious incase it happens again (especially question 1).
Fedora 17 64-bit
XFCE
Thanks
